Hello everyone..............I'm back. Did you miss me?
Yes, I did tell a porky pie that I would not leave it so long between blogs but I had a moment of madness and signed up for a craft stall at a local Summer Fair this weekend.
Anyone else with half a brain allows themselves a few weeks to prepare and make stuff.........or you are me and give yourself less than a week lol!!!
I have made some decorative frames, embossed slate hearts, stamped wooden hearts and other bits and bobs. I will take photos.......when I have 5 minutes lol!!! I have even used some of my First Edition papers, and there was Mr D thinking I would be buried with them.
Keep everything crossed for me.
Now, back to today's offering. This is one of the samples I made for John's last shows using the multi layer stag stamp and its a card and matching box.
Ingredients
Cream, black and gingerbread card (Limetree)
Crafts Too Stag Multi Layer Stamp set
JND Snowflake Circle embossing folder
JND sentiment
I think this has quite a masculine look and John actually said in one of the shows that he wanted it for his Christmas card lol!!
Hope that everyone is ok and that you have a great weekend..........I know that mine is going to be busy. I've a few more hours in the craft room so Mr D hasn't seen much of me. I'm sure that he is pining but seems to be keeping a stiff upper lip

Morning Ang, your card is absolutely fantastic. Enjoy your craft fair. I am away for work, so will try catch up with blogs next week. Have a good day everyone. Bx
ReplyDeleteMorning Ang, your forgiven because I know what it is like when you have a stall to prepare for, not done one for ages now - hope it is a great success, I am sure you will sell loads.
ReplyDeleteThis creation today is amazing, and yes would be an ideal man's christmas card too, I know John loves the Stag as one of his favourite things he has produced and no wonder, it is amazing.
Now you finish up all your stuff and then give a little bit of time to Mr D otherwise his lip will be hitting the floor and he will trip up.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
I did wonder where you were! Hope the craft stall goes well. I’m just catching up with a lot of John’s shows so haven’t seen this yet. It’s lovely.
ReplyDeleteHad a lot on with family and away so I’ve not had much time to craft. However this week all my stash from John is out and I’ve started playing again. Only trouble is, I’m at my Mum’s again at the weekend and then away for a few days. All will stop again!!

Hope the Summer Fair goes well. Lovely box and card today and I remember a John saying that he wanted it for Christmas.
ReplyDeleteHello Ang,
ReplyDeleteYou're a glutton for punishment!! I hope the Fair goes well and that you go home with empty boxes.
Today's card is a beauty and I'm not surprised that John took a shine to it.

Yes, I missed you and your creations. You have been one busy lady. I am loving this masculine card design. Maybe a great one to send to my nephew for his birthday. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteI love this card and box, Ang. I look forward to hearing about the fair - good luck.

Hi Ang
ReplyDeleteYou are a hoot! lol
A great masculine Christmas card indeed with John's name on it
One week to gather 'your bits' for the craft show!! Take the pills and don't forget to breathe
Whilst you're away the WARTs could take care of your.... tomatoes?

Good Luck Ang I hope it goes well for you
ReplyDeleteThe card is lovely and yes quite masculine but I would love to receive it too
Hello Ang,
ReplyDeleteOh wow, you don’t do things by halves do you!! I hope you have a successful Fair! Looking forward to seeing what you have made.
I loved this box and card when I saw it on John’s Show . John clearly loved it too! It is a lovely stamp set but as I’m in tidying mode I’m not looking at it just now!
I’m off to bed now as I’m shattered!
Many thanks,
Love Myra xx
